> Bulging Flies (E2) at Wintours. Laps on that would be pretty good training!
Agree with this one - possibly the best hand-jamming crack in the area, and unusually one which you pretty much have to jam - shame the crack isn't longer! The first pitch of King Kong is good too, and The Split (VS) is a good entry-level offwidth. That's about it for Wintour's - apart from one very obscure offering on North Wall - Banana Crunch (bit of a gift at E2 5b if you can jam) - try it!
Wynd Cliff has a few good cracks - Questor, Fibre (both VS) and Trial (HVS), plus Canine Crack (E1) at the Quarry
Shorn Cliff has Tiger's Don't Cry (good jamming at the top) and Fallacy (HVS and underrated IMO) but that's about it. I can't really add to James Slater's list of Yat cracks. In the forest, The Horned One (E1) is a bit of a classic at Staple Edge, and just to its left Drake Passage (E2) is a short but hard and very pure jamming crack with very little for your feet - can't see how you'd do it any other way. There's bits of jamming on Arthur Pod (HVS) and Butch and Sundance (E1) on the same crag.
For a heatwave - try Passage of Time (E1) at Llangatock - the first 3/4 of which are an excellent fingers-to-hands crack - the top is a bit grim though...
Final obscure recommendation is Megalopolis at Ogmore - vaguely reminiscent of The Mincer, but much bigger - get on it!
Cheers
